Cultural psychology
A subdiscipline of psychology concerned with how cultural settings shape a person's thoughts, feelings, and behavior, and how these in turn shape cultural settings.
Direct replication
A replication study in which researchers repeat the original study as closely as possible to see whether the original effect shows up in the newly collected data. Also called exact replication. See also conceptual replication, replication-plus-extension.
Ecological validity
The extent to which the tasks and manipulations of a study are similar to real-world contexts. Also called mundane realism.
Experimental realism

Generalization mode
The intent of researchers to generalize the findings from the samples and procedures in their study to other populations or contexts. See also theory-testing mode.
Meta-analysis
A way of mathematically averaging the effect sizes of all the studies that have tested the same variables to see what conclusion that whole body of evidence supports.
Replicable
Pertaining to a study whose results have been obtained again when the study was repeated.
Replication-plus-extension
A replication study in which researchers replicate their original study but add variables or conditions that test additional questions. See also conceptual replication, direct replication.
Scientific literature
